Hi All! I just thought I would post a quick introduction - I just posted one in the Pregnancy check-in discussion, but not everyone may see that, so thought I would post one here, as well.
I am 33, wifey is 27. We were married on 12/13/13 (on Friday the 13th....mwaaahahaha), we have been together for 2.5 years. Right now I am 11 weeks pregnant, due 6/19/15. We used a known donor (a good friend) and were successful on our 1st try! We are still in shock that this happened for us so easily, in shock and we count our blessings every single day!
I look forward to participating in this board - as there have been many LGBT specific questions we have had so far along this journey - and I am sure many more are to come.
